Silence in space is one of my favorite things about Firefly.
I watched
Superman Returns
yesterday, and there's a scene where Supes hovers above the planet and superlistens to the world's suffering, and all I could think of was SOUND DOES NOT TRAVEL THROUGH A VACUUM NO MATTER HOW SUPER YOUR HEARING IS.

Well, almost always. Have you seen Lone Star? Gorgeous setting, good story, interesting transitions between two time periods, great twist at the end.
Oh, that is a good movie.
Oh yes, I loved Lone Star. I need to go imdb Chris and see where he hasn't been the bad guy. Except for this one, my brain can't churn any up. He does creepy so well though.
Chris Rock doesn't have Wash's arms.
I know Allyson will have my back on this point.
Chris Cooper was the romantic lead in 1000 Pieces of Gold, starring Keiko O'Brien. (Err, wassname from DS9 and ST:TNG)
Hmm. Haveta check that one out.
Hey, I'm not the only molecular biologist around here! *waves at Sheryl*
Yeah, ya gotta love that episode of Voyager where they had a microscope that zoomed in on someone's DNA sample until they could see the individual atoms. They were differently-coloured balls, just like molecular models. And then one of the atoms had a little bar code on it, which is how they knew the aliens were messing with them.
Eyes rolled out onto the floor.
....Ye gods, that *is* going to be one gorgeous baby. yay Gina and her man!!

Oh, this reminds me of when I recently watched an episode of the animated
X-Men
and saw a scene in which Beast looks through a light microscope and views a virus.
Love "A Thousand Pieces of Gold"!! A really good movie about the Chinese experience of the gold rush. Rosalind Chao (aka Keiko O'Brien and Soon Li from M*A*S*H) is excellent in it, but I forgot that Chris Cooper was in it, too!
He plays Jake Gyllenhall's dad in "October Sky," so he's definitely the antagonist in that film, but I wouldn't call him the villain, exactly.
